The analysis of the effects of firm-level international trade on wages has so far focused on the role of exports, which are also typically treated as a composite good. However, we show in this paper that firm-level imports can actually be a wage determinant as important as exports. Furthermore,...

Wage dynamics is closely intertwined with job flows. However, composition effects associated to the different sizes and characteristics of workers entering/ exiting into/from employment that may blur the "true" underlying wage growth, are not typically accounted for. In this paper, we take these...

It is well known that, unless worker-firm match quality is controlled for, returns to firm tenure (RTT) estimated directly via reduced form wage (Mincer) equations will be biased. In this paper we argue that even if match quality is properly controlled for there is a further pervasive source of...
